If anyone can give me information where to find left hand thumb picks, I would really appreciate it. I've been getting by with the standard ( National ) right hand picks. They seem to fit the best.After an hour or so, they really get quite uncomfortable.The music stores around here, just don't carry any lefty picks. I'm going to be in Norwalk Conn. in November for the show.If any members happen to carry any lefty picks, i'll look you up at the show, or you can contact me on the forum.Any help would be greatly appreciated. My thumb is getting real sore !!!!!!!!By the Way,I wear a (Large)
Thanks !!!Gary Schuldt

You can get left handed Dunlop thumb picks from Scottys' Music in St. Louis. Your local music store should also be able to order them for you. I can send you a couple of large if you send me your address. I use Medium and don't need the large ones I have.

Gary,
When I was at the St. Louis show as I was "thumbing" through Scotty's trays of thumb picks, I ran across some lefty thumb picks. You might try to contact somebody there, maybe Don E. Curtis, for more help.

I usually don't use picks, but when I do I use the Herco thumbpicks. They are shaped just like a regular guitar pick but with a tab that flips over the top. They go either left or right. I like them because they aren't as long as the usual thumb picks.

It seems that human brains have a crossed connections. This means that the brain's left side controls the right side of the body and the right side controls the left side of the body. One can easily infer from this that left-handed people are the only ones in their right mind.
